القواعِد 3: العَدَد والمَعْدود   Number phrase

(اِلأَعداد من 1 إلى 10)

اسمعوا

Number 1:    

In Levantine Arabic, speakers commonly use a singular noun alone to express the quantity of a single item. To say “one book” for example, the noun is used alone: كتاب.  The words واحد or واحدة can be used after the noun to add emphasis. The word بس can also be used to add further emphasis.

My friend has only one brother.	رْفْيقي عنْدُه أُخْت وَحْدة بَس.	أُخْت One sister
The area has only one school.	اِلمَنْطِقة فيها مَدْرَسة وَحْدَة بَس.	مَدْرَسة One school

Number 2: the dual form المُثَنّى  

 “Two sisters” in Arabic is expressed in the dual form of a noun. To form the dual form in Shaami, the suffix  ـين ‘-ain’ is added to a singular noun such as كْتابِين  and مَدْرَسْتين.

Dual masculine المُثنّى المذكر	Singular masculine المُفرد المذكَّر
خالين – عَمّين	خال – عَمّ

Dual feminine  المُثنّى المُؤَنّث	Singular feminine المُفرد المُؤنّث
سَنْتين – جامِعتين	سَنَة – جامْعة

Numbers from 3 to 10:  

Numbers from 3-10 are used to modify plural indefinite nouns such as “three boys” ثلاث أولاد.    Note that the taa’ marbuuta ـة  at the end of numbers is dropped and thepronunciation of the numbers is slightly different than that of cardinal numbers. 

المعنى بالإنجليزيّ English equivalent	العدد + المعْدود Number phrase
three cars	ثلَث سَيّارات
four brothers	أَرْبَع إِخْوان
five books	خمْس كُتُب
ten houses	عَشَر بْيوت

Numbers from 11 to 19:  

When expressing quantities from 11-19 in Levantine Arabic, we use the singular form of the counted noun. Additionally, the letter ر is added to the end of the number.

المعنى بالإنجليزيّ English equivalent	العدد + المعْدود Number phrase
Eleven books	اِحدَعْشَر كْتاب / ايدَعْشَر كْتاب
Thirteen students	ثَلَثطَعْشَر طالِب
Sixteen girls	سِتّطَعْــشَر بِنْت
Nineteen days	تِسِعْطَعْـشَـر يوم

  1- Addressing grandparents: In Levantine Arabic societies, people use different titles to refer to their grandparents depending on which dialect they speak. In some areas of the Levant, you may hear people refer to and address their grandparents as “ستي” (sitti, my grandmother) and “سيدي” (sidi, my grandfather). In Jordan and Palestine, “جدّي” and “جدّتي” are also commonly used for grandmother and grandfather, while “تيتة” (my grandmother) is also used in Lebanon, Syria, and many urban areas across the Levant. Additionally, you may also hear speakers append the sound “و” to the end of the word used when addressing their grandfather (جدو،  سيدو).

2- Addressing children: It is very common for family members to call their children by their own family title role. For Example, a mother may call her child “ماما”, a grandfather may call his grandchild “جِدّو”, or an aunt may call her nephew “خالْتو” or “عَمِّتو”.

son-in-law/brother-in-law	صِهْــر ج. أَصِهْــرة
fiancé	خَطيب (ـة)
